Openplotter setup

I have a PI4 with a motissier hat connected to a 10" touchscreen that I'm trying to setup with openplotter NOOBS version.
I have followed the instructions to the letter but after the initial bootup where it rewsizes partitions and installs lots of files it just loses video signal. If I reboot it again goes through the initial screens ok but then as soon as you think it's going to open it loses signal.
I've tried different cards, different programs to get the image on but to no avail. If I just load raspban on it works fine. I know I'm doing something wrong I just don't know what.

Re: Openplotter setup

have been following the above link and I now have the basics setup and working. (see photo)
In the instructions it says to setup a connection in the op/settings/connections lbut when I reboot I get error messages like this (see photo), so I went back and set it up localhost 3000 and no more error messages. (se photo)
Then the next step is to input/file or data and from the instructions you do it from sk sever connections tab here but I don't get that option (see photo) I get this one (see photo) am I in the right spot?
I have installed maps and they appear to be working but I have no GPS even though I have motessier hat installed with latest drivers, do I need to sort the signal k problem before anything else will work?
Cheers
Rob

Fixed 2 days to find the solution and less than a minute to fix. At least I learnt something from the ordeal
problem #hdmi_safe=1
solution hdmi_safe=1

Now I can load the openplotter image and my gps and ais are working fine.

Re: Openplotter setup

Good you fixed it.
As you may know this forum is basically for OpenCPN. Although OCPN is a part of Openplotter I suggest you also join this forum https://forum.openmarine.net/index.php
